Can you imagine how amazing the water tastes, from the lake the Russian's found last weekend?? Lake Vostok is the first lake to break through to liquid water, down two miles! It hasn't seen light or air in 15 to 34 million years!! See the ice cores they pulled up.
Yesterday, a first grader at Gibbs Elementary asked what do I want to see in Antarctica? I want to experience the ocean, the rocks, the horizon, the penguins, whales and speak to the scientists that are on King George Island year round.
Today, I discovered that you get very dirty from penguin waste on your shoes and your pants. If you want to film them, you have to sit on your butt and get on their level. Makes me want to visit the 'gently used' clothing store. I need waterproof/wind proof pants that I won't worry about soiling!
